  • China Ex-Post Evaluation of Japanese ODA Loan Project
    China Ex-Post Evaluation of Japanese ODA Loan Project Chongqing Urban Railway Construction Project External Evaluator: Kenichi Inazawa, Office Mikage, LLC 1. Project Description Map of the Project Area Chongqing Monorail Line 2 1.1 Background Under its policies of reform and openness China has been achieving economic growth averaging about 10% per year. On the other hand, along with the economic progress, urban development, and rising living standards brought about by the reforms and opening up, problems caused by the underdevelopment of urban infrastructure in major cities have surfaced. As a result, traffic congestion and air pollution were becoming increasingly serious. Chongqing City is located in the eastern part of the Sichuan basin on the upper reaches of the Chang River. In 1997 the city became the fourth directly-controlled municipality in China following Beijing, Shanghai and Tianjin. After Chongqing City became the directly-controlled municipality, the city began actively promoting introduction of foreign investment and becoming a driving force for economic development in inland regions of China. However, along with the economic development, traffic congestion became much worse in the central city areas1, impeding the functionality of the city, while air pollution increased due to exhaust gas from automobiles, leading to a worsening of the living environment. The situation reached a point where transportation via roads was being inhibited due to the terrain of Chongqing City and the condition of the existing city areas. The improvement of the urban environment was considered 1 The central part of Chongqing City is in a rugged mountainous area. It is divided in two by the Chang River and the Jialing River.

China 2Nanjing University of Aeronautics & Astronautics, Nanjing, P.R. China Keyword: Railway vehicle bogies, Intelligent assembly, Intelligent push, Human-machine cooperation, System integration. Abstract. Due to the complexity and highly demand in quality of the bogie assembly of railway vehicles, CRRC Nanjing Puzhen Co., Ltd has developed an intelligent assembly system for railway vehicle bogies. The system can accomplish the intelligent transportation of the bogie parts by the robot on the shelf and the software system developed by ourselves. At the same time, it can also carry out wireless information interaction with the control center and generate process files automatically according to process tasks transmitted by the control center. Besides, a series of key technologies including 3D process documents intelligent push technology, intelligent material box online detection technology, human-machine collaboration technology and system integration control technology have been conquered, which realized the high efficient production and reduced costs of railway vehicle bogie assembly. Introduction The advanced railway vehicles can speed up communication in the field of transportation services in the world economy, and the research of related technologies can help to promote the development and integration of the world economy. With the intelligent trend of manufacturing industry, automatic and intelligent manufacturing technology has become the core requirement of railway vehicles in the world.

  • Chinese-Built Subway Cars Well-Reputed in India by Yuan Jirong from People’S Daily
    Chinese-built subway cars well-reputed in India By Yuan Jirong from People’s Daily Metro Line 1 is the only subway track of Mumbai, the financial centre of India. It drives through Mumbai’s information technology center Versova, manufacturing center Ghatkopar, as well as the city’s largest transportation hub Andheri. All the 16 trains running on the line were produced by China’s CRRC Nanjing Puzhen Co., Ltd. The 16 trains have maintained over 6 million kilometers of safe operation since the metro line came into service in June 2014. These subway cars have won the trust and praise of the Indians because of the quality and comfort they offer, opening broad space for rail traffic cooperation between China and India. The Chinese subway cars are made of light-weight stainless steel with fire-resistant silver doors. Each one of them has eight sliding doors that can open wide to offer easy access for wheelchairs. Even when the number of passengers rises sharply at around 5 p.m. every day, these trains are still able to handle the huge capacity. The interior of the train is clean, bright and spacious. The floor is slip-resistant and the seats are arranged in a longitudinal fashion. The facilities are user-friendly, such as the LCD televisions that broadcast dynamic route maps and entertaining programs for passengers. The air conditioners could automatically adjust the temperature through sensors installed. The windows are made by double-glazed glasses, blocking outside noises. In addition, the train is also equipped with first-aid supplies, firefighting equipment and communication devices.

  • Research and Analysis of Permanent Magnet Transmission System Controls on Diesel Railway Vehicles
    electronics Article Research and Analysis of Permanent Magnet Transmission System Controls on Diesel Railway Vehicles Lili Kang 1,2, Dongjie Jiang 2, Chaoying Xia 1,*, Yongjiu Xu 2 and Kaiyi Sun 2 1 School of Electrical and Information Engineering, Tianjin University, Tianjin 300072, China; [email protected] 2 CRRC Tangshan Co., Ltd., Tangshan 064000, China; [email protected] (D.J.); [email protected] (Y.X.); [email protected] (K.S.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: As the energy crisis and environmental pollution continue to be a gradual threat, the energy saving of transmission systems has become the focus of railway vehicle research and design. Due to their high-power density and efficiency features, permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSM) have been gradually applied in railway vehicles. To improve the efficiency of the transmission system of diesel railway vehicles, it is a good option to use PMSM as both a generator and traction motor to construct a full permanent magnet transmission system (FPMTS). Due to the application of the new FPMTS, some of the original control strategies for diesel railway vehicle transmission systems are no longer applicable. Therefore, it is necessary to adjust and improve the control strategies to meet the needs of FPMTS. We studied several key issues that affect the reliability and comfort of the vehicles. As such, this paper introduced the FPMTS control strategy, including the coordinated control strategy of the diesel and the traction motor, the two degrees of freedom (2DOF) decoupling current regulator, the maximum torque control of the standardized unit current, the wheel slip protection control, and the fault protection strategy.

The remaining LRVs will be delivered to Hong Kong in batches between 2019 and 2023. The new LRVs have gone through a series of tests and examinations at the manufacturer’s factory before acceptance and delivery to Hong Kong. Upon arrival, they will further undergo a series of stringent testing and commissioning procedures. In addition, they are required to pass the necessary safety and performance tests as well as obtain approval from Government authorities before entering passenger service. The first batch of new LRVs is expected to be ready for passenger service in 2019. -End- About MTR Corporation MTR Corporation is regarded as one of the world’s leading railway operators for safety, reliability, customer service and cost efficiency.
